Just had a rear step bumper fitted by an independent land rover specialist, but notice the bracing bars from the hitch area to the rear chassis rails are omitted.
I called about it and was told the 90s don't have these. I said I thought otherwise and would come and speak to them face to face. The rear step has a label "Styleauto Ltd"; I was under the impression that it would be oem spec. I thought it should have the bracing between the circled holes? Anyone know what it should have? |

Thanks for your replies, Obviously I didn't try hard enough on Google!
I phoned Style Auto who confirmed the arms should be present. They have a wee website too: http://www.styleauto.co.uk |

It is genuine Land Rover, I fitted mine at weekend with bracing bars
They were in the box together with a drilled piece of metal that goes between the crossmember underneath & the L shaped bit that bolts up into the crossmember - Might be worth that is fitted 2020 P300 HSE |
